I have been getting return emails from unknown sources like the one below:

Virus: WORM_SOBIG.F

I went to McaFee site and did the online virus check and at the same point got a windows error that forced me to close IE. I wonder if the virus did this? This happened after a long time and I assume near the end of the virus check.

I also downloaded the "Stinger" from McaFee and that too did not find any virus.

I went to google and found the following link:
trendmicro.com

They seem to have a fix but I never heard of them and don't want to compound any problems. Has anyone heard of these guys?
